#1.
Ab Db Last night, all alone, in a barroom.. Ab Eb met a girl with a drink in her hand. Ab Db She had ruby red lips, coal black hair, Ab Eb Ab Eb and eyes that would tempt any man.
#2.
Ab Db Then she came and sat down at my table. Ab Eb Fm Eb And as she placed her soft hands in mine. Ab Db I found myself wanting to kiss her.. Ab Eb Ab for temptation was flowing like wine.
CHORUS:
Ab Db Ab And I was almost persuaded..to strip myself Eb of my pride. Ab Gb Db Ab Eb Ab Almost persuaded..to push my conscience aside.
#3.
F Bb Eb Then we danced and she whispered I need you.. Bb F take me away from here and be my man. Bb Eb Then I've looked into her eyes and I saw it.. Bb F Bb the reflection of my wedding band.
